Does myocardial hypertrophy lead to myocardial ischemia?

Cardiac hypertrophy can lead to myocardial ischemia.

Cardiac hypertrophy is characterized by thickening of the myocardial wall and expansion of the ventricular chamber, which easily increases the demand of the myocardium for oxygen and blood supply, and also leads to limited filling of the left ventricle and reduced ejection of the right ventricle. Hypertrophic ventricles also affect the normal contraction of the myocardium, thus causing myocardial ischemia.

For patients with cardiac hypertrophy caused by cardiovascular diseases, it is necessary to take medicine regularly according to the doctor's advice, pay attention to strict monitoring of the condition, and conduct regular reexamination to achieve early diagnosis and early treatment to prevent the occurrence of cardiac sudden death.
